Is the TCL PlayCube worth it?

It depends on price, which isn't listed here. At a typical budget-portable price, native 1080p, autofocus and a battery are a strong package. Compare the live price against 720p portables before deciding.

How bright is it, and can I use it in daylight?

Brightness isn't specified in the listed specs. Battery portables in this class usually need a dim room; expect a washed-out image with direct sun on the wall.

How big a screen can I get, and how far away?

It projects 30 to 150 inches. At the 1.21:1 throw ratio, a 100-inch image needs roughly 8 feet of distance, and 150 inches needs about 12 feet.

The listing doesn't detail box contents. Expect the projector, a power adapter and a remote; confirm with the store before buying if a carry case matters to you.

Does it work with a Nintendo Switch or PlayStation?

Yes, via the HDMI input. Latency isn't specified, so fast competitive games may feel delayed; casual and story games are fine.

Portable projectors usually dip during Black Friday, Prime Day and back-to-school sales. Set a price alert and compare across stores rather than buying at list.
